FARE's Teal Pumpkin Project returns this Halloween season, encouraging homes, schools, businesses, and community events to offer non-food treats and display a teal pumpkin. The initiative helps children with food allergy take part in trick-or-treating, trunk-or-treat events, and other festivities. Some fun-size treats may lack ingredient labeling, so non-food options can help. FARE also invites participants to serve as Community Captains and use a free toolkit. An interactive map helps families identify participating homes and events before Halloween night.
